MapReduce and the Big Data Challenge

Reporting and analysis drive businesses in making the best possible decisions. The source of all these decisions is data. With the explosion in data, capturing, managing and processing it at large scales has proved to be an issue using current tools and is referred to as the ‘Big Data’ challenge.

In order to process big data, new techniques are needed for both processing and storage of this data. The open source Hadoop stack has provided a paradigm shift for ‘Big Data’ management. By providing local computation and storage, the solution scales up from single servers to thousands of machines. Back to top
